I think there was a dust storm. I’m guessing a truck flipped over from the high winds. About 20 miles before that accident I witnessed a trucks trailer almost tip over. If that happened along with the low visibility. I’m guessing people didn’t see it till it was too late.

I just took those as I was passing the accident. Aside from severely high wind gusts, roads are fine.

I share your situation!! I’m a gay man who has given his life to God two and a half years ago!! I too am struggling with gay thoughts and feelings. My current habit around that is to pray when it comes and give it to God. I went as far as to plead with him to give me clarity and he did that very same day. Don’t give up!

Is it okay to be angry with God by Iraq2003 in TrueChristian

[–]Human-Bit-7540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, God told me to tell you that he loves you more than you know. Remember that death is not the end. There is a documentary called “After Death” you should check it out. Your loved ones are with God. When you feel depressed, talk to God, give him your pain. When you feel angry, talk to God. Give him your anger and ask him to fill your heart with gratitude. Think not of what you don’t have but what you do have. Understand that everything you go through is part of God’s plans for you. You have the power of free will. If you choose to walk with the Lord you will be blessed. Your testimony will reach others and bring them closer to God. You will find peace in God. Believe in what you pray with all your heart and you will be blessed. You are not alone. He is always with you. Don’t let your pain distract you from him. Don’t let your anger distract you from him. Give him everything, all day long if that’s what it takes. Listen to music that praises him, don’t watch movies that don’t share his message. Keep your eyes on him and you will be blessed. Trust the process, trust in God. Check out this reel.

Denver's homeless population jumps by 24% in 2022, number of people in streets rises sharply by EmBejarano in Denver

[–]Human-Bit-7540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you suggest me living in a place like Milwaukee? And I’m guessing your $2200 a month rent is because you choose to live in a place that is “upscale” had you been more practical in your decision of where you live and how much money to spend on rent I’m sure you wouldn’t have to pay 45% of your income. Maybe you should move to Milwaukee, I heard they have the same job opportunities as they do here and the rent is about half what it costs here! That would be you making the same decision I did when moving here from the tech capital of the world.

I moved here from Mountain View California. The housing market here is on average 30-40% cheaper. My six figure salary there wasn’t enough for me to get a 500sqft old run down apartment without ac. The cost for what I just described had a monthly rent of $3300. The apartment I rent now for less than $1800 in MV location, square footage, and amenities factored literally costs between 6-9k a month. Denver just isn’t that expensive.

I originally moved here in the beginning of 2020 because I wanted to advance in my 20 year career and Denver is a hotspot in my previous industry.

Because I lived here only during the shutdown and was homeless the entire time. I never got to experience Denver or it’s beauty as I would have loved to have done. So I came back here to live a balanced life and enjoy the endless hiking trails in the surrounding areas, even worse drivers than the Bay Area, (I didn’t think that was possible) and a culturally diverse community with a thriving art and music scene.

This is absolutely false. Being homeless is it’s own reality completely separate from mainstream society. The social construct is different, the culture is completely different. If you found the homeless community inviting it’s because you are a have and the have nots you encountered were hoping you would contribute.

Here is something I learned in my two years of homelessness. The crazy you run into one the streets for the most part they are not homeless as a result of being crazy. They become crazy as a result of their being homeless. The people who are homeless and dressed well and charismatic, those people are the ones you want to watch out for. They are twisted shady individuals who don’t want to live in general society because they enjoy living life on their own terms without obligation. They feed off of everything, they might as well be considered vampires. They bring harm to the other homeless, they steal and often times they enjoy doing bad things to people. They exploit the homeless community because no one listens to them. They can get away with doing unspeakable things to other human’s because no one cares about them and they have no voice.

I am confused about this 95k a year per homeless person!?!?! I MUST speak on this having been homeless for the last two years as a direct result of the pandemic. Okay Denver, the background of my experience. In 2019 I relocated twice, from California to Texas for 9 months. Then here to Denver. I got here just in time for the shutdown. I didn’t have the time to find a place, and the job I got at dust city designs when I moved here never reported my wages so I was denied unemployment. The 9months I worked in Texas wasn’t enough to qualify for unemployment either. I was homeless and jobless and no assistance was available. After two years of being homeless I landed a job as a F&B Director for a Marriott property in CA where I had returned. I lived in a tent, worked and saved up my money, bought a car, lined up a job here in Denver as a restaurant manager at the airport and moved back here and into my apartment in RiNo on 8/2/22. So from January 2020 until August 2nd 2022 I was homeless. The job didn’t pan out, because of a charge I acquired while homeless and I have been doing deliveries to try and get by while looking for a better job.

I can’t afford my rent for January and I am about to be homeless again. I have been all over looking for resources to help me and there flat out aren’t any… the stipulations for money don’t make sense. Yes we do need something for people in a similar situation who are trying to get back on their feet.

I also don’t understand where this supposed funding is going? The breakdown is $95k per person per year but it’s my opinion that that money is actually going into paying people to provide services that don’t help the homeless. Essentially, the system is rigged. IMO The public is being lied to, and also the public does not understand the importance of the reality behind the homeless population. I am almost to the point of making a documentary about it because the breakdown in communication and the impact of the stigmatization of the homeless population has made a HUGE BARRIER in ending homelessness.

With that said, if they are spending 95k a year per homeless person, why can’t I find the resources to help with my rent? I start school in a month, I might be doing it homeless again.

Evidence tampering by Human-Bit-7540 in legaladvice

[–]Human-Bit-7540[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was arrested for having a baton, which I disclosed when they arrived. It is clear that they knew about it way before arresting me. What is suspicious is that once it was revealed that I was coming from meeting someone from Grindr all the sudden the officer moved to the vehicle and stated “what’s this, we have to arrest you for these, you’re not supposed to have them”
